Jamestown College's initial 16-man recruiting class for 2010, announced today by head football coach Bud Etzold, includes 14 prospects who signed letters of intent on Wednesday and two student-athletes who enrolled at Jamestown in January.

The 2010 class has a strong in-state flavor with 10 signees hailing from the state of North Dakota. It marks the second straight year the Jimmies have signed nine or more in-state products. The Jimmies also dipped into the talent-rich states of Florida, Nevada, Minnesota, California, and Canada for a total of six out-of-state players.

Coach Etzold stresses that while he is extremely pleased with this initial list, it is simply a very solid start in the recruiting process.
"There are many outstanding prospects who we are actively involved with and areas we are just getting into. I do believe this initial group is a nice cross-section of outstanding talent that will add to the great tradition of Jamestown College and Jimmie football in future years," says Etzold.
